Your Local Weather
 

We have birthdays, jokes, and all sorts of topics here, so I figured, why not weather?

To start things off, and to paraphrase something a guy named Jim Lovell once said, "Houston, we've got snow here." At about 10:30 this morning it started snowing for the first time since last March or April here in the Truckee South Meadows. At shortly after 6AM as I watched the sun rise over the Huffaker range to my east, I recalled that old nautical saying, "Red before night, sailor's delight; red before morning, sailor's warning." It was a red morning with clouds covering the sky east to west. When I went to bed last night, the sky was clear, the stars out showing very crisply. Last night the temp also dipped quite low--for the first time in months, the furnace actually kicked on (and it was turned down low). To BledAngelShadow, laranger & DWM222 and anyone else east of me and in this latitude, chances are its going to get cold your way soon, so break out those coats, gloves, hats, &c.!:) Think about it--snowboarding, skiing, tubing, &c., are maybe just a couple weeks away! Boo-yeah!:D

Its already cold here...bummer, I hate the cold

Here in Missouri it's sunny and a nice 75 degrees with nighttime temps in the 50's. :D

It's a beautiful 23°C (or 70 something for our American friends), sunny skies here in Toronto, Canada. Couldn't ask for a better long weekend in October.

Happy Thanksgiving!!! (Or Columbus Day for our neighbours to the south)

The snow yesterday turned to light hail then rain yesterday late afternoon/early evening, so the snow that had started sticking to the trees, grass, was melted away. On the up side (for me), the Sierra's are living up to their name now ("nevada" means snow-capped). Two weeks ago yesterday, I was down at the pool swimming; 1 week ago it got cold enough to break out the blankets; and now we're getting snow. This, BTW, is about 2-3 weeks earlier than usual.

Hey there, dtstuff9, Happy Thanksgiving to you! I have an old friend who lives up in Ottawa who works for HealthCanada. Her mom used to be an Assistant (or maybe it was Associate) Dean at York U.

Now, since this is a weather thread, let me just say Lucky! I hear its going to be a bad winter down here, but sincerely hope that you don't have such bad ice storms like a few years back! Now where did I put my Farmer's Almanac ...?

I was looking out my window at the clouds heading east over the Huffaker range and suddenly realized: the weather I'm getting today was Geezer's weather yesterday. Tomorrow it'll be BledAngel Shadow's. The day after that, unless something another front pushes or pulls it aside, its going to go through where laranger & DWM222 live. Just saying ...

And after a morning & early afternoon with some blue skies, its all gone grey and the cloud ceiling has gone down a lot, with some particularly dark clouds thrown in there to boot! No snow here since yesterday, but the wind has that chill to it.

I would appreciate it if you & Geezer could throw up some kind of barrier when you notice bad weather coming my way...It's been cold & rainy here..burrrrrrrr

Bay Area Weather
 

Hey! If I could block your weather I would. The past two days, it's been windy and cold here in the Bay Area. I know, I know, it's all "relative." But, when we are used to T-shirts and shorts weather and then it chills down to sweater and long pants, it's cold to us "locals.":cool:

In fact, I was planning to drive up to San Francisco today (Sat) for their annual "Fleet Week" but the winds postponed the Parade of Ships until tomorrow, Sunday. I'm not even sure if the Blue Angels were able to perform.

And... we had a very small earthquake yesterday afternoon. I was doing cardio at my gym and didn't feel it but read about it later on.:eek:

Looks like they are allowed again. http://www.military.com/fleetweek

Personally I like warm weather, but I was wondering what kind of weather Danielle likes.

Danielle's preferred weather
 

Well, since Danielle made a home for herself in Phoenix, I'm sure she likes it HOT. After all, she, and we, don't want that amaziing body bundled up in winter clothing. Those amazing breasts need air - to be free to move and shimy - not restrained by multiple garments.:rolleyes:

from what i can see out the window it has ben nice here in NC.

Snow
 

Well.... YEAH! Look where you live!!!! Freaking CANADA! Winter comes early to you northern dwelling folks.:cool:

My contribution for the next 5 days - http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?world=0008 :D

The weather here is a disaster, it has not rained here for 6 weeks, only had 12 inches of rain in 2008 and tomorrow's daytime high will be 100 degrees F ... and its October!! :(

Thanks for the weather report. You wouldn't happen to be a londoner by any chance?.:D
I'm a Kentishman.:)

Beautiful blue skies and tropical warm weather here in the tourist town.

All this talk about snow...what is it?

Are you over in the Great Western Desert, or around Perth by any chance? That's rough weather, indyfan, and while where I live is technically a desert, its a lot easier than where you are evidently.

Robin Williams, in Good Morning, Vietnam, and Ollie Williams, the weatherman from Family Guy would probably describe the weather here as "cold and wet!" Over the past few weeks, the weather here in the mountain shadow between the Sierra Nevada and Great Basin desert has gone hot & cold. Now, for a couple days running, it has been decidedly, and one-sidedly cold. Sun evening it rained enough to cause a blackout, tonight on my way to & from the pharmacy (chemists to those in the UK, Canada, Australia & NZ), which is just 2 blocks away, I watched the clouds, big purple things, roll over & down the slops of the Sierras, that mist that indicates rain coming along with them. Earlier in the day, I'd been out to the supermarket which is about a mile down the road, I noted that Mt. Rose (the other side of which is Lake Tahoe) & Slide Mountain were both covered with a very nice coat of snow. In just the short amount of time it took me to go to & from the drug store, a heavy mist began to come down. I knew it was coming, since I'd been watching the local Fox affiliate (which is also the Fox affiliate from Oakland CA) and had seen it drizzling down in the SF Bay Area (must have been nice, Geezer, to get the rain before it came over the Sierras & got cold--burrrr!), so here's a warning for those folks to my east in UT & CO--bundle up if you haven't already. This might turn out to be one of those extra-cold years like we had back in 2004, although I'd be surprised if we got as much snow as we did then

cold, rainy, fall...

It's night time here and can't see weather outside - sorry !!

We are stuck in a snow storm up in the north west. 60 + mph winds. It is terable. Tigger is catching a nap he didn't sleep well last night.

Heard about that storm...hope you brought some warm coats & blankets...I hate snow:)

Its not just the snow it is this wind, it will nock you over! we are at a miltary base in a nice warm room.

Its been nice here in Texas..a few mornings where it was cool or alittle cold but the afternoons were warm.Looks like that about to change with a cold front coming in.

Here is a still off of one of the cameras on tiggers truck just before we shut down.

Its crappy out all right. We just got the ok to roll in the morning. 445 more mles and im done with this load. Hope to go back east there is a sorm moving in will be here sun. And i want to be gone.

That IS a nasty looking storm. I've been in a few stroms like that when I was younger. I don't care to be in another one though. But those type of storms did teach me a lot about how to drive in inclement weather.

Do you excuse, But is Tigger already at work? Have they left Ohio away?

Tigger went back to work on Monday ugo.

MARCY GOT LICKED BY A BUFFALO!!!!:eek: WE WERE SHUT DOWN YESTERDAY DUE TO THE WEATHER SO WE WENT EXPLORING AND CAME TO A BUFFALO RANCH SO WE PULLED TO THE SIDE AND WERE LOOKING AT THEM AND THEY CAME UP TO THE FENCE AND MARCY WANTED A PITURE OF HER BY THE FENCE WITH THE BUFFALO BEHIND HER SO SHE STOOD IN FRONT OF THE FENCE AND ONE OF THE BUFFALO STUCK ITS TOUNG RIGHT ACROST HER FACE. THAT THINGS TOUNG HAD TO BE A FOOT LONG. I WISH W COULD HAVE GOTTEN THAT ON VIDEO. THE LOOK ON HER FACE WAS PRICELESS. SHE WAS PISSSED AT ALL OF US FOR NOT TELLING HER IT WAS THAT CLOSE.

Nice "Buffalo", Tigger !!!!!!:eek:

I remember a famous Movie of the Buffalo in the middle of the storm of the snow, and with the actor Charles Bronson and another (an Indian seems).

Tigger, has made me remember that Movie. I believe that has been beautiful to see a Buffalo !!!

Will her new nickname be "Buffalo Gal"...LOL

Ugo, I believe this is the movie you are asking about. http://stores.blowoutdvd1.com/-strse...he-/Detail.bok

It is a really good movie BTW.

Thank you Laranger.
Even if I still have to buy this Movie in Italian. Is a true American masterpiece.

It was gloomy today. Early this afternoon it started sprinkling; now its raining. The local weather says that it'll snow tonight, the only question left is just how low will the snow fall, at my elevation in the Truckee Meadows or just up in the Sierras. Personally, since I don't drive anymore, and I live in apartments so I don;t have to shovel it away, I could do with the snow even though I was planning on taking my younger relatives out for a nature walk tomorrow or Fri since school's out. Might still be possible ...

The Indian was played by Will Sampson who also played the role of Chief in One Flew Over the Cuckoo Tree with Jack Nicholson, Christopher Lloyd, Danny DeVito, Brad Dourif and Louise Fletcher, and in The Outlaw Josey Wales with Clint Eastwood. He was a member of the Muscogee nation. I always like The White Buffalo--it was one of the 1st VHS tapes I bought way back when.

It appears winter has arrived along the Colorado Front Range...have about 6" of snow & still coming down & about 2 degrees...brrrrrr
Went out this morning & my little car was dragging bottom on some of the roads. Guess I'll have to get out the "Gas Hog" pickup for a while if I want to go cruising...LOL

Cold non-snowing Christmas weather here in the Philippines ^_^

San Jose on Xmas Day
 

Holy Crap! The wind here in San Jose CA on Christmas Day, is like a typhoon! It's bending trees over and pelting everything with rain drops. The power remains on but I wouldn't be surprised if it goes out in some parts of town if the wind continues.:eek:

It's dark outside, at 10:52 PM, and we've got -2 °C (28 °F).

We are stuck for the day up here in PA. expecting 8-10 in of snow. We drove for a little while but the roads were too bad. Here is a photo from the dash cam on the truck of a truck that jackknifed on a hill.

Marcy took this one with her camera out the window.

Nasty weather to drive in.

nasty looking weather

we got snow here too. hoping it does not get much worse.

Snow has just arrived in Kent:eek: and my car drives like a toboggan lol. I left my house at 7:30am and have already seen a car plough into a parked car but no real damage was done as he was crawling. Just a slight scrape down the side lol. So the mill is closed for awhile as the main workers can't get into work. Just amazed how the ice has formed already on the roads.
